Chapter 228: Buying and Selling at a Loss
Gu Jinfeng is also worried, but now it's just useless to worry, you have to come up with a way, otherwise, it's all in vain.
Just when the big guy was eating, he heard footsteps from far and near, and then the door was opened, only to see the panting Meng Huan standing outside, running back in a hurry, making him look a little embarrassed.
Raised his sleeve and wiped the fine beads of sweat on his face, put down the medicine box Meng Huan ran over, frowning with a sad face.
"I said, why do you still have the heart to eat here? Don't you see what's posted on the other side? Three folds, they are really not afraid of losing money! ”
At that price, it will definitely lose money, and it will be a big loss!
"In order not to let us go down, is An Rentang crazy?!"
This kind of behavior of injuring the enemy by 800 and injuring 1,000 is no different from going crazy, right?
Meng Huan was anxiously pacing back and forth, muttering for a long time, but he didn't see the slightest response from Qi Ling and Gu Jinfeng, and he was even more panicked for a while, and turned around to look at them with disbelief.
"I said, you two also say something, don't say nothing, I don't know the bottom of my heart!"
Gu Jinfeng, who was eating, looked up at Meng Huan, who was in a hurry, and raised his hand to pat the vacant position beside him.
"You have the physical strength to walk back and forth, so you might as well sit down and have a good meal, and you can finish eating."
"But ......"
Without waiting for Meng Huan's words to finish, Qi Ling, who was sitting there, directly slapped the case, and the action of patting the chopsticks made a lot of noise, and when he looked up, a cold halo looked at the whole process, and her aura was so strong that everyone didn't dare to speak.
"Eat."
Seeing her tense face, Meng Huan sat down and automatically sat down to eat with a rice bowl.
Everyone spent this meal in depression, and after eating, Qi Ling kept moving the abacus behind the counter, and everyone listened to the sound of the abacus beads and looked at the opposite side.
Looking at the continuous influx of people to Anren Hall, and then looking at the desertion of Fushou Building, the guys couldn't help sighing.
Xiao Liu, who was sitting there, didn't understand one thing, "There's one thing I don't understand, there are so many people who came to deliver medicine in the morning, why didn't anyone come to pick up the medicine at this time?" ”
Even if the business is not good, the people who should have delivered the medicine before still have to come, but look at what time it is now, why hasn't anyone come yet?
As soon as the words fell, I saw Meng Huan, who had gone out to see a doctor after eating, and came back with a medicine box on his back.
Putting down the medicine box and squatting on the threshold, looking at the red-hot An Rentang on the opposite side in a daze, he sighed deeply, "Let me tell you why no one came to pick up the medicine." ”
Meng Huan was weak and pointed to An Rentang on the opposite side, "An Rentang has pulled the people who delivered the medicine to their side, and promised them that in addition to calculating their shares, there is also a basic salary, which is enough for two taels of silver a month." ”
"Two taels of silver?!" Xiao Liu's eyes widened in disbelief, "Then how much money do they have to lose!" ”
One person is two taels of silver, then ten people are twenty taels of silver! Just hiring these people to deliver medicine is worth a month's revenue, right?
Meng Huan, who was squatting on the threshold, continued to sigh, "What's that, Anrentang is rich and wealthy, don't take this little money in your eyes, don't forget, the owner behind them is a famous big family in the capital." ”
It's completely different from their self-made business, people don't have as much money as they want, and they can afford to lose.
Raising his eyebrows and looking at the other side weakly, Meng Huan looked down at his own toes, "It's really not going to close the door this time, right?" ”
When Meng Huan said this, his voice was full of etherealism, as if the whole person was floating.
After going through so many things before, the medical hall gradually improved, but I didn't expect An Rentang to still oppose them and directly come up with a loss-making method.
Fushoulou is not as thick as Anrentang's foundation, if you compete for customers, you must lose money, they can't stand the delay, one day or two days is okay, but if it is ten days and half a month, it will be closed.
Gu Jinfeng, who was standing behind the counter and collecting the account, took advantage of the air to look at Meng Huan, who was facing away from him.
"How did you get back? Have you seen the doctor? ”
Hearing his words, Meng Huan sighed heavily.
"No one came to see me, even if I sent it to the door, they didn't want me to see a doctor." I couldn't help but smile bitterly.
Gu Jinfeng raised his eyebrows clearly, and out of the corner of his eye, he glanced at An Rentang, who was picking up customers on the other side, and inadvertently saw the disgusting smiling face of Steward Hu.
"It's Anrentang's ghost again?"
"No, they went door to door, and the people who were picking up medicine in us before, when they heard that their house was cheap and there were things to give, of course they went to another door."
Thinking that he was kicked out by someone, he was quite sentimental in his heart, and sighed helplessly.
Meng Huan's words resonated with Xiao Liu, and he couldn't stop nodding.
"That's right, especially for the poor, those who don't have the money to get medicine, of course, can't resist the temptation of cheapness."
Seeing such a low price, he wanted to go over and buy one or two bottles of medicine, after all, now is a good time, even if he doesn't need it now, he can still use it in the future.
In the continuous sighs, Qi Ling, who had been dialing the abacus beads, finally stopped his fingers.
Looking at the remaining silver taels on the account, a dark light suddenly flashed in his warm eyes, and he kept banging on the counter with one hand, and his little face fell into deep thought, not knowing what he was thinking.
After a while, Gu Jinfeng's rise here was also closed, and he put the account book in front of her.
"I've settled the account, you can take a look."
glanced at the amount on his account, it was the money that had not been settled to the person who delivered the medicine in the past few days, and it always had to be given to others, so he wrote another account.
The surplus on the book was directly deducted from the medicine delivery person's silver, and seeing that there was still a little money left, Qi Ling was also worried, and looked up at the sky outside and was stunned.
They must not be tough, they are not as big as their waists, they can withstand losses, but they don't bargain, but there are other ways?
Just as Qi Ling was thinking, Gu Jinfeng had already walked out from behind the counter, staring at the overcrowded An Rentang opposite with deep eyes.
Seeing that an old woman was squeezed out of it, Gu Jinfeng rushed forward with an arrow step, grabbed his arm, and held the person firmly in the crook of his arm.
Looking at the frightened look on the old man's face, Gu Jinfeng carefully helped the person to stand firmly, so as not to fall again.
"Are you alright, old man?"
Apparently the old man was also a little frightened, and waved his hands tremblingly.
"No, it's fine."
A pill bottle fell out of the pocket with a crisp sound, the cork was not properly corked, and the pills inside rolled out.
